Surrounded by many points of interest, such as the Archangel Michael Basilica in Monte Sant’Angelo, a medieval, quiet, picturesque village, the Umbra Forest, the white high cliffs of the coast nearby, set on the edge of Adriatic Sea, the house makes a perfect base from which to explore the area. It is very nicely suited to simply relaxing in a quiet place, on a hillside overlooking the sea, although the beaches (both rock and sand) are not far from here and there are hill towns and a plenty to discover in the valley and nearby mountains. Built in 1878 to be the summer dwelling of a noble and cultured family from this area, Villa Basso, nowadays, has been carefully renovated by the new owners who really love this place. In 1964 the villa has been the set of the British movie “The high bright sun”, whose main character was Dirk Bogarde with Puglia standing in for the movie setting of Cyprus.

I am a lawyer not still working for both, personal choice and family reasons , who really enjoys and love meeting people from all over the World : I use to consider guests as they were friends. I love to chat at sunset , to talk of this and that, maybe sipping a glass of good wine. I cant' wait to meet my new friends!
